Hi! I use this homemade facial about twice a week after washing my face, it makes my skin super soft and bright.
Here's what you'll need:
1 green tea bag
2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar
1 tablespoon honey
( add a teaspoon of olive oil for dry skin if you have it)

Okie dokie, First off you're going to want to make concentrated green tea, so boil some water and fill you cup just above the tea bag so that you have about 1/4 cup of water in there. Stir it and let it soak until it's luke warm.

Now put a tablespoon of honey to 2 tablespoons of sugar. You can attempt to mix it if you want but it's just easier when you add the tea later on.

Then! Once your tea is cooled enough to not melt the sugar pour only a half a teaspoon in and mix everything up, add more untill the get the right consistency, like duber wet sand. If it's too wet and drippy then add more sugar~

To top off the mask I tear open the tea bag and put half of the tea leaf substance into my mask to give it a swamp monster look and so I can utilize all the nutrients from my tea.

Put it all on using either a cotton pad or a clean hand, and make sure you cake it on.

Leave it on for 10-15 minutes or until it drys out a little. Wet your face with warm water and then exfoliate for a few minutes using only the tips of your fingers as to not damage your skin. Then wash it all off and pat dry with a towel!

Your skin should feel as soft as a babies butt and should look brighter and healthier.
Also the best thing you can do for you skin is drink water, it will hydrate it and help level out the oils! so drink a tall glass of water while the mask sits ;D

Your sebum production is based on genetics, not on how much water you drink. If you have dry skin it's not because you aren't drinking enough water, it's because your sebum production is underactive. Water will help dehydration which will help all skin types. But there is no need to drink a glass of water while wearing a mask. Just make sure you drink the reccomended 8 glasses of water daily.
